With over 10 years of full stack web development experience, I'm interested in solving business problems with useful and practical software. I do my best work in complex long-term projects where technical tradeoffs can be openly discussed and involvement in product design and UX is possible.

I'm currently learning modern frontend tech (TypeScript, React, Next.js, ...) and kubernetes; and willing to learn new backend stacks if required, especially Python or Kotlin.

Hello, my name is Dillon. I like thinking about ways to make technology approachable. Put another way, I like translating nerdy stuff into tools normal people can use. Computers are magical to me and I want to contribute my work to something more meaningful than, say, advertising. Instead, I want to bring this magical-feeling to people through my work.

My career has manifested in digital design, but if given the chance I would love to try designing physical things, too. In my work I value simplicity, accessibility, and reusability (I was a front-end dev for four years and understand the value of designs that can be built easily).

I'm a boring designer. In my free time I design the most boring Mac apps. For example, here is a mockup interface I made for an open source macOS app that I love: https://dillonbrown.me/images/mockups/finicky-1.png. To me, boring is beautiful, boring is usable and reliable. I don't make dribbble show-ponies, I make workhorses.

Please take a look at my website (https://dillonbrown.me) to get a sample of the kind of work I can make for you.

Location: Utrecht, The Netherlands

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies: Rust, Haskell, C#, Java, Typescript, Angular

I am great at finding my way quickly in existing codebases (e.g. the Rust compiler), architecturing software in such a way that other developers can actually read it, and helping non-technical people understand the software development process. Recent work includes enhancing a legacy Java codebase at an European pharmaceutical company, creating a desktop app in C# for data analysts at an European chemical company and coaching a self-taught C# programmer to improve his technical skills.
